I have my tank it's a 46 bowfront that I got last night. I posted before asking more beginner questions. My thing is I'm adding sand today and my LFS has live rock in a tank that they are selling for a few $ a lb. once I set up my tank and have the water correct it won't have anything in it so it won't be cycled. Someone told me if I add live rock to an unicycles tank I will kill my rock and also I can't add more than a few pieces every week. Is this true?
Another question is I was going to just have live rock in my aquarium for a month or so before adding fish or anything, if I only had live rock would I have to have a protein skimmer? Or could I wait til I got fish.
Another dumb live rock question, if I set rocks on top of each other will it kill some of the rock and then lead to decaying organisms in my tank?
Sorry for all the questions I just don't wanna screw up my first SW tank
